I briefly visited the Portsmouth campus of Tidewater Community College, near
the south end of the Monitor-Merrimac Bridge-Tunnel, this afternoon. The
campus is at the north end of College Drive. I estimated a lot of the numbers
(tried to estimate low). There was a slight fog over the water, but there
appeared to be a large gathering of gulls (>300) on the river. Species list
below:
Common Loon 5
Red-throated Loon 1
Double-crested Cormorant >30
Brown Pelican >15
Bufflehead >15
Surf Scoter >20
Ruddy Duck >40
Laughing Gull >15
Great Black-backed Gull >5
Herring Gull >30
Ring-billed Gull >20
Downy Woodpecker 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
Dark-eyed Junco 1
